Challenging, yes, impossible, no.

Solo space for all saxes, trumpet 4 and trombones 1/2. As recorded by Gordon Goodwin on The Phat Pack CD. This is an amazing arrangement! This title is available in SmartMusic.

Take them to festival with this stunning, minimalist piece, arranged with the melody doubled in many sections, for a first full orchestra experience.

The performance will sound high level, yet the tune is completely playable. This piece will take your breath away! (2:30) This title is available in SmartMusic.

Chuck Mangione's hit, LAND OF MAKE BELIEVE is now available for the young players! The melody is doubled with alto sax and trumpet, and there is a drum solo instead of an improvised trumpet solo. Ranges are very easy and the rhythms are slightly tricky but will lock in with repetition. A superb chart that will really come together and be a huge success!

A moving tribute by Susan Day to the people we admire---whether it be family members, role models, or those serving our country---this piece in E minor uses easy rhythms, pizzicato, some divisi in the cello part, and a few low 2nd fingers in the violin 1 part. All players get melody lines, and the violin 2 part doubles the viola. Sounds harder than it is! (2:30)

Hidden treasure chests motivate this pirate to action on the high seas! Legato bowings, pizzicato, lifts, and some marcato bowing express the pirate's determination in his quest. All sections share the minor melodies, which include great reinforcement of low 2nd fingers in upper strings. The viola part doubles the 2nd violin part. Fun for all!
